We all know Floyd wasn'T obligated to fight Thurman or Lara, but is it because the WBA did not acknowledge K2's fight with Brook that the mandated fight with the regular Champion, Jacobs, was more of a penalty? Funny thing is, I don't think either guy wanted this fight!

Originally posted by SugarKaineHook View Postso when did this revision of rules all come into affect? Is it on the website?
The policy towards a single champion remains firm and present, to the point that at the time of my words the rankings show 8 of 17 weight categories with a single champion. The road is not easy, once more, commercial interests always have an effect. So not in an instant, but in the long term, fans will have a reduction in WBA championships.

Originally posted by SugarKaineHook View PostAll I remember was WBA industry gossip that the WBA did not want to sanction its involvement with Brook whereas the other councils did.... Then suddenly after Brook or before, I don't remember, but the WBA forced it. So this went into affect during the Brook prep fight. The site lists ''updated.''
And they didnt santcion the brook fight, as far as I remember
